Rooted in our neighborhood, open to the world
When the Club was founded as a nonprofit organization (NPO), its goal was to get young people off the streets and help the Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve community through sports activities. Even today, the Club de Boxe de l’Est is committed to making a real and lasting impact on its community.
Over the years, the Club has developed undeniable expertise, enabling local youth to reach the highest levels of amateur and professional boxing.
Today, the Club de Boxe de l’Est enables its members to excel in major competitions at the provincial, national, and even international levels.

Our part in making the world a better place, one jab at a time
Social Reintegration
Since 2010, the Club has been welcoming community service workers. In our view, sports and the discipline they require are a driving force for social reintegration. Thus, if they wish, each of them can use the facilities to try boxing for the first time or to continue their training after completing a block of community service hours.
To date, the Club de Boxe de l’Est has given hundreds of people a second chance.
Adaptive Boxing: Partnership with NeuroMotrix
People with neurological conditions such as Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, and post-stroke effects can benefit from adapted boxing classes at the Club de Boxe de l’Est.
